Nute @nutedawn.bsky.social · 2hhave now seen some of the usual "boohoo it's unfair for a division champ to be eliminated in two games" and I'm sorry but anyone arguing that the playoff format is bad because the 2026 Houston Astros didn't get to play more games is a clown 1100

Nute @nutedawn.bsky.social · 30/09/2026ok it seems ridiculous that they left Schlittler in for that long 120
Nute @nutedawn.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Yup, absolutely. I think it’s wrong to treat the Iran War as simply one bad error that happened to the Trump Admin rather than the entirely logical consequence of the way it operates. If it wasn’t Iran, it would almost certainly have been something else 51223178
Reposted by NuteZoomer Antimillenarian @surcomplicated.bsky.social · 29/09/2026FWIW, I think a fuckup on this scale in time to wreck them electorally was *almost* inevitable from Day 1, precisely because this is the Special Birthday Boy presidency in which there are almost no limits on Trump's madness and every proposed policy disaster has a real shot at going all the way. 311303186
Reposted by NuteMatt Winkelman @mattwinkelman.bsky.social · 29/09/2026It was the correct move, Don Mattingly made a correct bullpen move. He put his closer in for the 7th and 8th because it was the best chance to see the 9th. Duran piped a 99.9 mph fastball that got hit. There is a litany of managers who lost with their closer standing in the bullpen. 2122030
